Concomitant loss of NDH complex‐related genes within chloroplast and nuclear genomes in some orchids
Plant Journal, 2017 The chloroplast NAD(P)H dehydrogenase-like (NDH) complex consists of about 30 subunits from both the nuclear and chloroplast genomes and is ubiquitous across most land plants.

The Activity of the Chloroplastic Ndh Complex Is Regulated by Phosphorylation of the NDH-F Subunit [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2003 Abstract Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) induces increases, to different degrees, in transcripts, protein levels, and activity of the Ndh complex (EC 1.6.5.3). In the present work, we have compared the effects of relatively excess light, H2O2, dimethylthiourea (a scavenger of H2O2), and/or EGTA (a Ca2+chelator) on the activity and protein ...

Structural insights into NDH-1 mediated cyclic electron transfer
Nature Communications, 2020 NDH-1 is a key component of the cyclic-electron-transfer around photosystem I pathway, an antioxidant mechanism for efficient photosynthesis. Here, authors report a cryo-EM structure of the ferredoxin (Fd)-NDH-1L complex from the cyanobacterium ...

Functional and structural insights into cyanobacterial CO<sub>2</sub> concentrating mechanisms: from compartmentalization to regulation. [PDF]
Plant JSignificance Statement Life on Earth depends on photosynthetic CO2 fixation via the Calvin–Benson–Bassham cycle to form organic carbon. This process evolved first in cyanobacteria and was later conveyed to eukaryotes, giving rise to plastids in algae and plants. To cope with low atmospheric CO2 concentrations that developed over the course of evolution,

The 5 kDa protein NdhP is essential for stable NDH-1L assembly in Thermosynechococcus elongatus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The cyanobacterial NADPH:plastoquinone oxidoreductase complex (NDH-1), that is related to Complex I of eubacteria and mitochondria, plays a pivotal role in respiration as well as in cyclic electron transfer (CET) around PSI and is involved in a unique ...

NDH‐1L with a truncated NdhM subunit is unstable under stress conditions in cyanobacteria
Plant Direct, 2023 Cyanobacterial NdhM, an oxygenic photosynthesis‐specific NDH‐1 subunit, has been found to be essential for the formation of a large complex of NDH‐1 (NDH‐1L).
